Service is so bad now that they wouldn't get a tip, so they pressure you into tipping before the meal.
We tip 15-20% after the meal depending on QOS. And I only tip for meals and haircuts these days. Tipping has gotten out of hand.

why haircuts?

Because right after he tipped the girl at the massage parlor and the dentist office, it got awkward.
I always tip $5 on a $20 haircut.

I always thought a gratuity was expected at a barber shop because it is a gentlemanly thing to do.
While I don't tip my Doc or other professionals who earn good money, I do tip other personal service workers, such as my masseuse and barber. I have an on-going relationship with them and they don't make great money. I usually tip them 20%. Wait staff usually get 15% unless the service is horrific or extra great. Then, their tip goes down or up, accordingly.
Just an FYI - the norm used to be to tip wait staff 10%. Then, it went to 15%. Over the same years, food prices at restaurants kept up with or surpassed inflation. So, wait staff essentially got a 50% real raise in purchasing power when the tipping norm when from 10% - 15%. I don't know about others, but my pay never increased by 50% over those same years.

Has anyone ever taken back the tip if service was no better than everyone else at the wedding ? ? ?
